Permits and rules in Rutherglen
South Lanarkshire Council is the highway authority for Rutherglen: South Lanarkshire is the highway authority for local roads. Trunk roads are managed by Transport Scotland.
Road works in Scotland are noticed on the Scottish Road Works Register under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, and the Scottish Road Works Commissioner oversees how they are co-ordinated. The road authority sets the notice it needs for your type of works.
The M8, M74, M77 and M80 are within a few miles. On roads like these, queue lengths decide the method: we set signal timings to keep traffic moving and suggest night or off-peak work where it helps.
Around 31,000 people live in Rutherglen. On busier streets, keeping footways open and queues short matters as much as the works themselves.
